A Blog to Commemorate UP's Centennial Celebration

(A pose at Acad Oval on my last visit to UP)

On the night of my 16th birthday, I was ready to leave for Dumaguete to apply for college in Silliman University. I was all set, all my bags were packed. Amazingly, I heed my father's advice and decided to go to UP instead. For months, he's been asking me to choose UP instead of Silliman. He said that it would be better for me to attend college there. I kept on saying no because I felt like Quezon City seemed so far away. But I don't know what came over me that night coz I said "yes". And I'm glad I did! My UP days were some of the best days of my life!


I met a lot of great people in UP! I learned a lot of things in UP! I grew closer to God in UP! UP is the best!!!
